UFC lightweight has advice for Tony Ferguson

‘El Cucuy’ recently made his UFC return after a year-long break at UFC 274. Unfortunately, he suffered a brutal knockout loss in the fight. However, he has stated to come back stronger in his next bout and UFC lightweight contender Beneil Dariush has this advice for him.

“I actually think Tony has the right idea right now. He’s talking about working with the team, having people who can push him, having a head coach where he’s not the head coach, where he doesn’t wake up and be like ‘I feel like doing this’.” Dariush said in an interview with The Schmo.
